Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) have extensive applications in fundamental biology, regenerative medicine, disease modelling, and drug discovery/toxicology. Whilst large numbers of cardiomyocytes can be generated from hPSCs, extensive ...
Extracellular matrix alignment dictates the organization of focal adhesions and directs uniaxial cell migration [0.03%]
细胞外基质排列决定了粘着斑的组织情况并指引单一轴线的细胞迁移
